The use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) as part of the teaching and learning process of university students is increasingly frequent. This research analyzes the level of mastery that students have to integrate ICT in their own learning. The objective of the research was defined to verify the degree of relationship between the level of proficiency in the use of ICT and academic performance in university students from south-central Peru. A quantitative methodology was followed, transectional, applied and cross-sectional non-experimental design. A non-probabilistic sampling was developed where 300 students from 5 universities participated. To measure mastery of the use of ICT and its relationship with academic performance, a questionnaire with Likert-type scales was used. The results showed a significant correlation between the level of proficiency in the use of ICT and academic performance since the value of the p-value (0.000) <0.05 and the spearman correlation coefficient was 0.652, the correlation being highly significant and positive. (direct) considerable. The results express that a better use of ICT would increase academic performance in university students, for which a strategy was developed to improve the level of mastery of the use of ICT that contributes to increasing academic performance in university students. It is concluded that there is a relationship between the use of ICT with academic performance.
